'" Comprehensive Plan, the City of Roseville has strongly supported the need to provide the type of housing that is being proposed by Mr. Kehr. The property under consideration meets the objective criteria that have been discussed by the Planning Commission for locating this type of medium density residential use in the City. It is seldom easy to facilitate this type of change in a fully developed City. Mr. Kehr has been at this project for some 10 years now. 2. Through the strategic use of the Comprehensive Plan and the PUD, the City can successfully facilitate this transition and the interests of the affected property owners can be protected. There are four property owners between Kehr and Dale Street. Two of the four have indicated their basic support for this change. The Britz duplex is on a lot that is approximately 10,800 sq. ft. That is an effective density of approximately 8 units per acre, 2 units per acre higher density than proposed by Mr. Kehr, and consistent with the MR density range. When looked at in its entirety, a regional storm water ponding faciHty makes sense, perhaps in the area along and east of Dale Street. 3. Importantly, all of these property owners control whether or not they sell their property. In the review of the PUD, the staff attempt to respond directly to their plans and address compatibility issues in the design process. Staff Recommendations 1. The properties to the west should not be considered for a land use change unless it is the context of the redevelopment of the American Legion Property. The Legion representatives have publicly stated that they have no current interest in changing their use of the property (and they understand that the City is in the process of updating its Comprehensive Plan). Therefore, we do not reconunend changing the land use designations for any of the parcels to the west of Kehr at this time. This can await a project proposal trom the Legion. (The Commission has recommended a comprehensive guide plan map change to low density residential.) 2, The staff recommends approval of the change in land use designation for the following properties from LR to MR: Kehr, Borgstrom, Britz. Booth and Salverda. The staff also recommends illustrating the future street extensions only from Kehr to Dale Street and adding appropriate text in the Comprehensive Plan to req1Û1'e the street extensions if and when these parcels redevelop. 5
